lets say Americans give up their gun rights. Then the government decides it wants to use unconstitutional force on us. How would we defend ourselves without guns?

If you don't want to be vaporized, you'd have to take your own life.

Gunpowder was a Pandora's Box. I saw my nephews eyes light up when he saw his first fireworks, and I also saw him get very scared and nearly cry when they got louder and scarier.

Gunpowder hasn't helped us, it's holding us hostage -along with nuclear weapons. We are prisoners of our own aggression. In 2015, everyone probably wants a gun but nobody needs one. Gladly my country has a more sane view on gun ownership, but that hasn't stopped maniacs doing maniacal things.

Knives and blunt objects are dangerous too!

Great, survival of the fittest, where some animals are more equal than others, with violent criminals with knives (blades) and blunt objects, plus all the guns they can afford at all times, while only victims are rendered defenseless, "sanely", by "gun control".

Putting indiscriminate nukes, fireworks/bombs, and discriminate bearable arms within googolplex light years of one another, fail.

Gun's don't cause violence. If violent people want to go crazy and kill people, they'll find ways to do it with or without guns.
It's when crazy people who are not stable get ahold of guns. There needs to be tighter controls on who is able to carry. Better screening, interview process, psychological profile?

Which would not control all who are able to carry or get a hold of guns.

So first you fuck the LGBT
Then you fuck the people who aren't LGBT but support them

Is anyone really selling cakes at such a premium that you they afford to say "fuck the majority of customers who aren't bigots like me"?

Majority?, what are you talking about?, only about 50% of the Americans "support" same sex marriage, not to mention that not all of them are going to boicot something good (assuming the baker in mention is a talented one) to show their "support". There are plenty of brands aiming to more specific populations and still doing quite well (starting from women-only stores).

You can support or deny LGBT without marriage coming into play. Do you think bigots would sell cakes to those they knew were LGBT but did not know they were getting married?

What are these "women-only stores" that prohibit men from purchasing there? Either for women, or for themselves. Does a security guard make you reveal your pubic area before you hit the checkout line, or even the store entry?

Quote
Also, cannot you answer to what I asked?, why is this different to denying someone access to a bar based on how he dresses?, would people make such a drama if a straight guy or girl was denied access to a gay bar?, grow up, people is free to think whatever they want, wether you like it or not.

I can't answer apples and elephants comparisons, no.

What are these gay bars that deny access to heteros? Does a security guard make you suck a penis or lick a vagina before you enter?

People can think whatever they want, such as "LGBT money has cooties!", but that's a moronic/economically suicidal way to do business.

ETA: Hell, I'd boycott them if they refused to shut up and take any mentally-sound innocent's money.

Yes.

Doesn't matter, it's up to Amazon, eBay, PayPal, the credit card company, the bank/credit unions, the store that sold the card, and if all else fails, court orders. A court cannot order the entire planet's full blockchain crypto nodes to reverse a transaction, so crypto is the only payment method that has no possibility of chargebacks.

So that makes the new range higher than 809000 to lower than 834560.

Since "very close" in all caps isn't defined the way every reasonable person would...

This cake baker didn't really understand how Free market works at all.
Consumers do not have identities other than money they offer (which is neutral)
He should have baked that cake for money.

Well, as a part of free market, you are supposed to be free to decide to whom you want to sell your stuff, aren't you?

It is difficult to be a participant in the free market when you turn away so many customers you go bankrupt.

So many? LGBT guys are not even 10% of the population... I know bars that do not let you in if you are not dressed "properly" (jeans are inadequate for their standards) and nobody complains about it (nor are them going bankrupt).

So first you fuck the LGBT
Then you fuck the people who aren't LGBT but support them

Is anyone really selling cakes at such a premium that you they afford to say "fuck the majority of customers who aren't bigots like me"?

Can I know if someone is sending me money via my paypal balance vs. a credit card?  Can they still chargeback an amount if it is from their paypal balance?

Grudge against me too (PayPal pusher), it would seem. https://db.tt/1VymglMX https://db.tt/KSvxjjLo

Everyone should be able to protect themselves and their loved ones. For this purpose it is necessary to allow free carrying of weapons to those citizens who are recognized as adequate.

Recognized by whom?
